How to get a copy of your NSO Birth Certificate and NSO Marriage Contract?
Val and I will be renewing our passports next month and as a requirement, we need to submit a NSO copy of our birth certificate since we still do not have e-passports. Also, since I will be updating my name to my married name, I also would need to submit a NSO copy of our marriage contract.
For those who will be getting their NSO documents here in Bacolod, please take note that they have moved from the back of the Capitol/ Plaza. The new National Statistics Office (NSO) here in Bacolod is located at the back of Mcdonalds East near Eastwest Bank.
The process of securing the documents is very fast and easy.
1. First, fill out the request forms. Request forms for birth certificates are colored white while forms for marriage contracts is pink.
Some of the information that you need are the following:
A. Birth Certificate
1. Name
2. Date of Birth
3. Place of Birth
4. Father's Name (including middle initial)
5. Mother's Maiden Name
6. Is it late registration?
7. Purpose of Request
B. Marriage Contract
1. Name of Husband
2. Name of Wife
3. Date of Marriage
4. Place of Marriage
5. Purpose of Request
2. Make a payment. Fee for NSO copy of birth certificate and marriage contract is Php 140 each.
3. After payment, wait for your name to be called at the releasing section. Based on our experience, it only took us 20 minutes before we got our documents.
IMPORTANT REMINDER: Make sure that you have a government issued ID to be presented upon claiming.
Tips:
1. Come in early as they are giving out numbers.
2. In the afternoon, they can still accommodate clients even if they don't have numbers provided that there are only few people waiting to be served. On most cases, cut off time is at 4pm.
3. Don't forget to bring a valid ID. In cases that the request will be made through a representative, make sure to send an authorization letter and both your valid IDs.

Hack the Climate Pushing for Clean Technology in Leyte
In the commemoration of the 3rd
anniversary of Typhoon Haiyan, Hack the Climate will stage its first ever Clean
Technology Hackathon and Training happening in Palo, Leyte and Tacloban City.
It is part of the 8th NICP ICT Summit 2016, in partnership with the
National ICT Confederation of the Philippines (NICP), DOST Region 8, Philippine
Science High School – Eastern Visayas Campus, Seed4com, Move.ph, Millenia
Suites, ThinkLab and Unionbank of the Philippines.
Hack the Climate is a climate change
themed Hackathon that is formed out of the desire of a two Princeton University
College Students, named Michael Lanchanski and Jacob Scheer to help the
Philippines in their battle for climate change through Technology and
Innovation. With the help of their Filipino
counterparts, Elaine Cedillo, Diego Jose Ramos and Rizzel Jill Dy, Hack the
Climate was born in June 2013.
“Hack
the Climate in Leyte is our 5th since we started and we hope that we
can bring this project across the country” said Elaine Cedillo, the lead
project coordinator for this leg.
“Hack the Climate is more than just a
hackathon, it is our advocacy. Educating the students and young professionals
about the adverse effects of climate change while challenging the developers to
create a solution for climate change adaptation or mitigation, and through that,
the participants are empowered to do something to help our environment,” she
added
THE
CLEAN TECHNOLOGY PROJECTS AND THE HACKATHON
This year’s Hackathon is dubbed as
“Hack the Climate Cleantech-Loban” and it will be a three-part event. They will
be launching their first solar e-Learning facility for Alternative Learning
System and a Solar Night Lamp assembly livelihood training program for the
out-of-the school youth and partner NGO’s, plus a conference – hackathon about
Climate Change Mitigation and CleanTech.
Philippine Toy Library located at Palo
District 1, Barugo Leyte with more than 100 learners and at Pambujan, Samar
with more than 90 learners will be the beneficiaries of an e-Learning set-up
consisting of laptops from Huawei Philippines powered by solar panels which
will be donated by Unionbank of the Philippines through their Go Beyond
CSR. The Solar Night Lamp that will be
produced during the training will be donated to a fishing community in and
around Tacloban.
The hackathon, a coding
marathon, happening on November 9-10, 2016 at Philippine Science High School in
Palo, Leyte, involves a specific theme where participants will be creating web
or mobile applications, or hardware solutions. The conference happening simultaneously with the
hackathon features speakers to educate and enlighten the audience to what
is happening with our environment and how it affects each and every one of us,
and different technologies which can be used to help in creating solutions.
Clean
Techloban is supported by the Ramos Peace and Development Foundation, Inc. and
